Original Note:
Looking at the data in the article referenced shows that the difference is 0.00045 (45 cases per 100000) for masked schools vs 0.00073 (73 cases per 100000) for unmasked schools. This is not significant. Playing with data using % is very misleading. https://www.abc12.com/coronavirus/university-of-michigan-study-shows-mask-mandates-at-schools-show-lower-covid-transmission-rates/article_9dfcd525-94d5-50cb-9b00-ac1c2171d7fe.html
